Abstract: A cognitive conversation system that generates effective diagnostic questions is provided. The cognitive conversation system receives a set of currently known symptoms (or currently available answers to diagnostic questions) of a reported problem or fault. The system identifies (i) a set of possible root causes of the reported problem based on the currently known symptoms and (ii) probabilities for the set of possible root causes by using a bipartite graph data structure that links possible symptoms with possible root causes.
